I know that I have the cable plugged in, as I never removed it when I
reinstalled my box. Should I unplug it from the STB and plug it back
in? Also, I see that my kernel version is 2.6.24.4-64.fc8, which is a
little newer.
I did see that my remote no longer works via lirc after I did this. I
haven't looked too far into this, but I see in /var/log/messages that
lirc started with no errors, so I don't see why it wouldn't be working.
I do have the kernel module for 2.6.24.4-64 if that helps.
Thanks,
Harry
